The 1935 Men's Ice Hockey World Championships were held between January 19 and January 27, 1935 in Davos, Switzerland with 15 countries taking part, a record. The 15 teams first played in four preliminary round groups (three groups of four and a group with three teams). Unlike the previous year, Canada participated in the preliminary round. The first two teams in each group advanced to the second round while the remaining seven teams played in a consolation round to determine positions 9 through 15. In the second round there were two groups of four teams. The first two teams in each group then advanced to a final round with the remaining teams played for positions 5 though 8.
